That is, the conventional plant operation training simulator image device includes an image simulation device 1, a display device 2, a network 3, and a control computer 4.

The video simulation device 1 comprises an input unit 5, a data reproduction unit 6, a video storage unit 7, and a display management unit 9. The video storage unit 7 stores real video data 8 according to driving conditions. Are stored separately. Generally, an optical disk reproducing device is used as the video storage unit 7.

The control computer 4 transmits a control command to the video simulation device 1 via the network 3 according to the plant operation state by the plant training simulator, and the video simulation device 1 outputs a video signal corresponding to the command to the display device 2. I do.

[0005] The processing operation of the video simulation device 1 will be described below. 1. A command to start or end video data is transmitted from the control computer 4 to the input unit 5 via the network 3. 2. When the input management unit 5 receives the display end instruction, it instructs the data reproduction unit 6 to end the video data currently being reproduced. 3. When the input unit 5 receives the instruction to start the video data, the input unit 5 transmits the video data name to the data reproducing unit 6. 4. The data reproducing unit 6 terminates the currently reproduced video data and stores the video data corresponding to the video data name in the video storage unit 7.
Call from. 5. The data reproducing unit 6 creates an image at a speed of 60 to 15 frames per second and transmits the image to the display management unit 9 in order to display the called video data as a moving image display. The video data is cyclically displayed in response to a request from the input unit 5. 6. When an image is input, the display management unit 9 outputs a video to the display device 2. 7.

Even for a video that cannot be sufficiently expressed by actual video data, by reading the corresponding simulated image from the memory and cyclically displaying the simulated image, any simulation can be performed, and a video that cannot be actually shot can be reproduced. In addition, the playback processing unit starts playback from the beginning of the video data at first, and enables the playback of video data from a predetermined position from the second time onward. A cyclic video can be reproduced, and a continuous video can be displayed.

Also, the component video data is stored in advance in the video storage unit together with the real video data and the processed video data, and the video processing unit processes and synthesizes the real video data or the processed video data with the component video data. Accordingly, it is possible to create an image of the driving situation that is not stored in the image storage unit. Therefore, the video according to the driving can be reproduced without storing the video data of all the driving situations in the video storage unit, the storage data can be greatly reduced, and the data creation time can be greatly reduced. Moreover, the reproducible driving situation can be expanded, and the value of the video reproduction device can be increased.

Further, by adding a display area processing unit that operates in accordance with the display area command and the video control instruction transmitted from the control computer, a plurality of T
V-pictures can be reproduced simultaneously, and a system can be realized at low cost.
